The title was a pull from God. Things have come to surface lately that I thought I was over and had forgiven. If you have boughts of depression, or situations have popped up from the past, I would suggest this book for you. I have never read any of the Authors books prior to this. I will follow his work. Once I started to read this, I knew it was a book to read and reread. Considering it as gifts for my family and friends who are struggling.

While being in an airport, I found this book and the title was amazing as I have people telling me "to get over" my tremendous hurt that I've been dealing with for the past year and a half. I tell them I will never get over it.

I felt this book was written just for me. I kept highlighting so many things!

I have read many self-help books in the last 30 years and many are excellent books to read and apply to my life but this is the best book by all that I have ever read. The author is right on target as far as what to do next. I am a peace loving person and I have acheived that goal and have lived in peace to the best of my ability and I agree with Dr. John Westfall there is more to life than peace. I will allow you to find the answer that he gives in the 13th chapter of his book.
